There seems to be plenty of internet chatter about the rise of courier culture &#8211; fixies, bags, rolled up jeans, rapha caps. I stand guilty as charged. In fact I&#8217;m still saving up for some of these things. I don&#8217;t think they notice me so much here on the south coast, but fakengers have infiltrated the London scene and are even turning up to messenger events&#8230;and even winning. I also wear Vans, but don&#8217;t have a skateboard.

(I need work). <a href=\"http:\/\/trackosaurusrex.com\/pblog\/index.php\">Trackosaurus Rex<\/a> is a great site, with tons of videos of people doing crazy stuff on bikes and the low down on new bits and pieces &#8211; wheels, clothes, frames etc. I&#8217;m also dipping into <a href=\"http:\/\/www.citycycling.co.uk\/\">City Cycling<\/a> which has a load of issues of its on-line mag with great articles about bikes (of all kinds).<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m also waiting in eager anticipation of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tweed.cc\/\">The Tweed Cycling Club<\/a>, I&#8217;ll be on the lookout for a dapper pair of plus-fours. In fact there are some fantastic videos of the former tweed wearing cycling masses.
